                   IMPORTANT Information related to the gnu-efi package
                   ----------------------------------------------------
		                        August 2003

As of version elilo-3.0, the gnu-efi package is now split in two different packages:

	-> gnu-efi-X.y: contains the EFI library, header, files, and crt0.

	-> elilo-X.y  : contains the ELILO bootloader.
	
Note that X.y don't need to match for both packages. However elilo-3.x requires at
least gnu-efi >= 3.0. When using a version of gcc >3.0 you MUST use at least gnu-efi-3.0a.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR IA-32:
-------------------------
	For IA-32, the Redhat 8.0 toolchain is known to produce
	working binaries when used with gnu-efi-3.0a + loader
	script patch which is included in the gnu-efi-3.0a-ia32.patch
	in this package. The toolchain includes:

	gcc: gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
	as: GNU assembler version 2.13.90.0.2 (i386-redhat-linux) using BFD version
	2.13.90.0.2 20020802
	ld: GNU ld version 2.13.90.0.2 20020802

	The Redhat 9.0 toolchain does not work at the moment.
